Default fishing methods

Just to see what the different methods poeple use now the weather is getting colder and the fish in are moving down in the water what method do you use to catch. I think my favorite way is fast sinking line with about 2 foot of leader and a booby or a fry. Really think this kills in the winter months.

My local water isn't that deep so i usually would fish either a floating or intermediate with various lures but i also find a strike indicator with an apps bloodworm or blob works well too

In the winter I fish small stillwaters only need floating, sink tip or intermediate lines, using Lures, nymphs or buzzers............

Yeah, this method does catch but a right hassle when the fish swallow your fly to deep. Like to fish a minkie ( suspender type with the foam pulled off ) on a Di 3 -5 or a Fast glass intermediate, just love the grab as the fish rips off, can,t beat it, ck.
